Cousin to beer goggles. The metaphorical goggles worn when observing another person wearing form-fitting attire of spandex. The resulting disruption of vision makes a person's physique appear more noteworthy than the reality is likely to be.
man 1 Did you see that yoga girl back there? She was so attractive!
man 2 I'm not so sure, I think you may have had your spandex goggles on.

Seeing someone in a very distinct and appreciative way. It is usually associated with having a crush or falling in love with someone, but can also relate to friends(friend goggles), or pets(pet goggles). This can also be referred to as "opening your third eye".

noun: a point of view one holds for a movie, tv show or other form of entertainment that you adored as a child, so much so that as an adult, despite reflecting on it and realizing it is sub-par or flawed, you still think of it as excellent.
Conversely, someone who never experienced it as a child and does so for the first time as an adult might think it is awful and not understand why people adore it.
References the 1985 film "The Goonies," a children's movie with numerous technical flaws and editing mistakes, plot holes, terrible child acting and overall nonsense that had an atrocious critical reception but is beloved to adults who watched it as children.

(from Steampunk motif of brass goggles)
- Late adopter of a scene who commonly gets credit for exemplying it through the use of a single, high-concept visual symbol, ie, brass goggles, anatomical corsets.
Characterized by simultaneous need to be identified with, and deep resentment of, the innovators of the trend they emulate. Self-image dependent on imaginary placement in percieved hierarchy of originality.
Often deliberately and defensively ignorant about true roots of their chosen aesthetic scene; more often just unaware.
Not to be confused with Babelfish Travelers.
Predessors include Drugstore Cowboy, Parking-Lot DeadHead and "Camp" Follower.

"Man, I haven't seen so many skeleton corsets since my sister's sorority went to the '07 Decembrist's show. Goggle-polishers for days.

Boat goggles describes a lapse in judgment or lowering of standards due to being on a ship with the same few people for an extended period of time. One with boat goggles might consider hooking up with someone on a ship that on land they would not have found attractive. In other words, rose colored lenses but for the cruise line industry.
“Yeah I definitely had boat goggles because he is not cute at all”
“Oh it’s just the boat goggles, they’ll break up as soon as they get back on land”
